[AUTOPOST] CARESHEET, WIKI & WEEKLY HELP POST - September 21 to September 28
Murray’s Before and After!
I got my first fish Bob as a gift 3 weeks ago in a bowl. Felt bad, did some research and got him an 8.5G tank. After cycling it, I put him in an hour ago and can’t believe how active he’s been exploring everything from top to bottom!
I have no idea how you guys manage to capture high quality action shots of your Betta’s. This is about as still as Anakin would be for me, it approx lasted 2 seconds
He just might be plotting my death...
My first betta tank! Pretty happy with how it turned out.
Believe it or not, that’s the same fish!
��Meet MILK �� mooooooo ��
My new buddy Momo is the moodiest Betta I have ever known. I just wanna be friends��
Wanted to try this after seeing the other vids on here and of course Donald was game
Commander Data the Betta wishes everyone a good day!
my custom made 90l/24g water box upgrade for my betta is ready! im so excited!
before and after a much needed trim
Just bought him! Name suggestions?
Cycling this 5 gallon for an angry boi. Any tips/suggestions?
He’s fabulous and he knows it
In this tank, we call home, everyone blub to the pumpkin song ��
This rescue baby is finally in his forever home! Look at that ungrateful face ��
Droppin my first music video
Figuring out the new lenses on Sushi.
My young male Athrun doing a little anger. He's still not as good at it as my other betta, Red, but he's learning to look angrier and stand his ground, day by day.
Pearl a week after I got him vs now
I present Georgie, the goofiest tank boss you'll ever see
Our new boy Pluto, I think he’s a king crowntail what are your thoughts? No idea on the age but he looks tiny compared to other bettas I’ve seen!
came home this weekend and my mom had left this on my dresser. i almost cried :(
Less than 24 hour Tail transformation! Duncan bit his tail to shreds on the car ride to college yesterday (first pic). Second pic is him just 20 hours later. More than halfway back to perfect. These fish are so amazing.

Welcome to r/bettafish!

Click this link to view our CARESHEET

Quick synopsis of caresheet:

Minimum tank size is 5 gallons (about 20 liters) for a regular sized betta, and 10 gallons (about 40 liters) for a king/giant betta
Bettas need an adjustable heater and a thermometer to ensure water temperature stays between 78-82°F or about 26-28°C
Bettas need a cycled tank- this requires a filter
Bettas need silk or live plants and hidey holes with no sharp edges.
Bettas have a special organ, the labyrinth organ, allowing them to breathe air. They require constant access to air at the top of the tank.
Bettas will jump- it is best to have a tank with a lid

Quick synopsis of the wiki:

Contains info on basic betta care, diseases, potential tank mates, tail types/coloring, differences between males/females, ordering bettas, moving with bettas, setting up sororities and MORE!
This most likely has the answers to your questions. Feel free to ask questions if you are confused or aren't sure about something.

WEEKLY HELP POST

This is the place to ask anything and everything about bettas. Be sure to include your water parameters(ammonia/nitrite/nitrate,) tank size, how long the specific issue has been occurring, and some pictures if there is something which requires a diagnosis (e.g. fin rot/melt, velvet, dropsy.)

How do I upload pictures?

Go to imgur.com and select "New Post". Add all the clear pictures you have so we can better determine what is going on with your fish. It is recommended you set the album to private if you don't want weird comments. Click upload. From there, click the share button- if you are on mobile, hit "copy to clipboard" and paste the link into your comment on here. If on desktop, copy the link and paste it here.

For those new to technology- ctrl + c is copy, ctrl + v is paste.

To have your link like this, put these [ ] brackets around the text you want to show, with no space before the first word or after the last word, and without adding a space after the second bracket, use parentheses ( ) for the link, with no spaces between the parentheses or the link itself.

Be sure to read our rules before posting or commenting.

If your question was not answered yesterday, please feel free to post again!

Ask away!
